Tree CropBioLife
Application
CropBioLife is a plant foliar spray that boosts plant and soil health.
CropBioLife is a 100 % natural flavonoid- based spray, developed from naturally
occurring bitter-orange extract. This application data sheet contains an overview of CropBioLife application on tree crops – including what to expect, results, and spray rates.
CropBioLife is exceptional at reducing the time to fruit bearing after new planting.
CropBioLife increases the trees capacity on two very important functions:
1. Boosted Photosynthesis provides extra glucose production which is used by the tree to assimilate nutrition at an enhanced rate. The process builds resistance in the tree
against climatic conditions. Higher leaf and fruit brix ensures resistance to insect and fungi attack. The extra carbohydrates are pushed to the roots improving root development.
2. Root Exudation is improved through the extra carbohydrates and flavonoids which form critical roles in improving the symbiotic relationship between the tree and soil biology.
This process significantly increases the mycorrhizal fungi around the tree roots which improves nutrient delivery to the tree. This process also improves the storage of soil organic carbon which is key to the water holding capability of the soil and offers a level of drought resilience.
Documented experiences:
The table below shows experiences that our customers had in which improvements were seen in key Treecrop parameters following the application of CropBioLife for one season.
*Experiences may vary. ’Documented experiences’ refers to independent laboratory testing that was completed following the harvest with our customers. These increases vary according to the crop type.
